He hadn't thought at all about gender in that moment.
He'd been thinking of survival and freedom. The light from the open door guiding their ascension to familiarity, friends, and a further future together.
He was pulled back by his arm, spun back to the spiraling dark abyss they could easily fall back into, if they weren't careful. Edwin's heart laid bare in Charles' hands, the personification of all his insecurities rushing up on eight legs behind him to rip them both apart.
Charles internal exploration with a dash of transmasc au.

Summary
“C’mon,” he says. “Just ask me something. Doesn’t have to be anything heavy to start with. Anything you wish you knew, to watch out for.”
Edwin busies himself tidying the cards on the ground between them, stacking them into neat piles alongside the game board. He pointedly does not watch Charles’ face when he clarifies: “Like the Devlin house.”
“Yeah,” Charles says, too fast. “Yeah, like that. Only maybe, uh, not that one yet? I will tell you, obviously, ‘cause I’d be a proper useless detective if I got stuck like that every time something reminded me of -”
“Alright. I have a question.”

Summary
The facts, as Edwin understands them, are thus:
1. Edwin Payne spent 7 decades in hell
2. Edwin Payne spent the majority of those years being ripped apart by a spider demon meade of doll heads
3. On Tuesday 12 March, 2024, the Dead Boy Detectives investigated an old railway station on the outskirts of York which was home to a nest of unnaturally fast and magical spiders being bred by a local mage for unknown purposes.
4. Approximately 5 minutes after entering the nest, Edwin Payne began to experience the following symptoms: shortness of breath, blurred vision, shaking hands, a curious sensation as if something very large was trying to crack ribs he does not have by squeezing him in its fist.In which Edwin's trauma catches up with him and he finds the whole thing quite tedious.

Summary
Charles is feeling a lot and also not much at all in the immediate aftermath of returning from Hell. He also can tell Edwin is wearing thin from holding himself together. Who wouldn't be, after that? It's okay, though. Charles can take care of him, and he always always will.
